Casting "Carl, from IT," a student film for NYU. Having peaked socially during his reign as king of the nerds at MIT, Carl is now a lonely middle-aged IT worker whose career potential has since been stifled by his social awkwardness. When the beautiful Maria starts interning at the office, Carl becomes desperate to get her attention, especially when his annoyingly attractive boss pushes her around. With his skills gained from MIT, he stands up for Maria, the office, and even himself.
